It name gwarn
An MC's not a banton without style and pattern
To get an answer you have to ask a question
What is Pato middle name? Origination
Around the microphone me have presentation
Me have more lyrics than desert have sand
More lyrics than water in the mediterranean
More lyrics than fish inna de wide ocean
Pato lyrics 'pon a scale must weigh a ton
This is a fact and not fiction
With maybe a little exaggeration
Every mickle mek a muckle every muckle mek a mickle
Pupa Pato have principle ride bicycle not tricycle
Ugly woman you fe settle me no want no gyal with freckle
Or a gyal that miserable for that would be so terrible
Unto Jah Jah I am thankful thanks and praise they are essential
Of the devil of I am careful 'cause I know he is so evil
Well a lot of racial people they give praises to the devil
And even have a ritual unto Jah that is abominable
Well before me come a dancehall man a strictly radox herbal
Well up and down me brush me teeth to make them look beautiful
A little bit of honey to fix up Pato's vocals
Then it's off to the dance to jump and prance and wiggle and jiggle
Wiggle and jiggle wiggle and jiggle wiggle and jiggle wiggle and jiggle and dance

When the people see me dance them a tell me fe
Just just just just just just just
Gwarn (Gwarn) Gwarn (Gwarn) Gwarn (Gwarn) (Go deh)
Gwarn (Gwarn) (Flash it)
Gwarn..
